The 1,943-page charge sheet filed by the Mumbai police against the 21 arrested accused and the six wanted accused in the six blasts between May and August 2008 is nothing, but old wine in a new bottle.

'IM chargesheet lacks punch'

The 1,943-page charge sheet filed by the Mumbai police against the 21 arrested accused and the six wanted accused in the six blasts between May and August 2008 is nothing, but old wine in a new bottle.

The 1,943 pages are mostly on how the Wi-Fi network was hacked by terror outfits. What it should have instead focused on was the source of the finances of the Indian Mujahideen (IM), that is the key to unraveling any terror activity.

The key accused Riyaz Bhatkal and his brother Iqbal are still at large. Again, like all the previous terror cases, including 26/11, the trainers and masterminds are holed up across the border, and it is unlikely they will ever be extradited to India to face trials here.

The Red Corner notices are not worth the paper on which it is signed. A glaring case in point is Dawood Ibrahim earmarked as a global terrorist, who remains 'missing' to date. I won't be surprised if history repeats itself in the IM case too.
